The Black Barn, Westport CT

A modern black barn on a Westport corner lot, where a row of slender young trees stands against dark board-and-batten siding and comes alive after dark. Upscape set a single warm uplight at the base of each tree — beams angled up the trunks and into the canopies, so four glowing forms float in front of a wall of black — then carried the same light down the driveway edge so the turn-in reads as an arrival instead of a void. The result: a house that disappears into the night everywhere else becomes the most composed silhouette on the block.
